Thy Word is a Lamp Unto my Feet . . .
Good morning, dear friends in recovery. You may not believe this, but the truth is we are all–including you–actually in recovery from the first day we begin to desire it and to seek it. These words spoken by the Lord to Daniel (Daniel 10:12), can be likened unto each of us as soon [...]

THE TESTIMONY OF (FROM) CHRIST: A CONTINUOUS SONG OF HIS REDEEMING LOVE FOR ME (US ALL)
I am, of all people, most amazed at how His words go on and on to me. At His graciousness and mercy.

I’d like to share what the Lord taught me this morning as I reflected on a recent experience at a HtH face-to-face meeting. There were a couple of newcomers there, and I was so tempted to negative thinking and searing self-consciousness because of my current weight. So ashamed that I don’t look “recovered” (i.e. thinner).
